Someone already got some predictions out ther but i wanna do the whole
card
my advice is to bet against who i pick to win
Undercard:
WW: Jesse Lennox vs. Danilo Villefort
danilo will win
LW: George Sotiropoulos vs. George Roop
the greek will win
WW: Matthew Riddle vs. Dan Cramer
riddle should win
MW: Thales Leites vs. Alessio Sakara
leites will win
WW: Tamdan McCrory vs. John Howard
most intersting fight to me as ive seen them fight up here since their
first fights, this will be extremely competetive and i got no idea who
wins, both could.both got crazy cardio though and are hard to finish
so my prediction is it goes to a decision.
okay ill say howard ...barely
LW: Shane Nelson vs. Aaron Riley
nelson barely..
Main card:
LW: Josh Neer vs. Kurt Pellegrino
most are saying neer, i say kurts wrestling is underrated and he wins,
id guess decision.
MW: Kendall Grove vs. Ricardo Almeida
very hard to say, ill go with grove
WW: Amir Sadollah vs. Johny Hendricks
again very tough terrific wrestler with heavy hands vs better
thaiboxer and bjj guy
amir seems to always beat wrestlers though, his weight is weirdly low
and concrens me, but ill go with amir but barely
LHW: Anderson Silva vs. Forrest Griffin
wirdly half the guys i know are saying fiorrest, he could win as he
has underrate dgrappling and he can maybe win on the ground, but with
his glass jaw and andersons connect % i say silva fights boring and
its ugly as he wont let go cause hes seating the takedown, BUT
EVENTUALLY he glances something in there and griffens takes a nap.
LW title: BJ Penn vs. Kenny Florian
penn should win, but i think hes tyoo confident as usual and he just
doesnt strategise, if the old bj with crazy speed and explosion shows
and he attacks right from the gate he should win fast.
but im guessing the slow plodding bj that just throws one twos all
night shows and florion is ready for him.kenny wins, but im on the
fence. |

So basically you could flip a coin and win money from me betting on
mma.
id predict tommorrows wec but ive had enough.
my thoughts on show
yet again a ufc RUINED by lay and prayers.
in this case pellegrino and almieda
the energy was gone from the room after the first two fights which
were won by guys whos standup strategy was this
"dont get hit while getting the takedown"
and ground strategy was "just stall...if you dont get tapped u will
win as the boxing commish hires judges who dont know what the gyard
is, so being on top means un dec ision
the first two fights were won 30-27 on both cardds by guys who were
smart, and fought for the judges not to stop them, or to please
thefans.
the card was ruined.
put pellegrino with fguida and edger as guys who will get 155 cut from
the ufc again. |

with a good chin-Roop- and Sot going after him with mma bjj and I mean the
kind you just love to watch. Transitions to transitions and going for the sub
and no laying out. Great fight to watch.
Yup. Esp. if you're a fan of BJJ. That one was a classic show of how to
use BJJ in an MMA fight.
Quote: Three good fights is good for a card.
Agreed.
They just happened to be the last three, so it might have worn down some
viewer's emotional energy, who started the broadcast excited, then lost it
during the early fights.

I went up into the attic with the wife the other day. Dirty, filthy, covered
in cobwebs. But she's good with the kids. |
